This has a really good cast including Nickolas Grace, best known as the sheriff of Nottingham in tv's Robin of Sherwood, and Joanna Page. What starts as a bit of fun quickly descends into uncomfortable unease watching and listening to the four snipe at each other until Logan injects a definite Giallo influence into the finale.
Bizarre and disorientating, a classic piece of British weirdness. |
Watched this a few years ago and really liked it. Very unnerving.
